4/* To avoid some locking problems, we hard allocate certain PILs
5 * for SMP cross call messages that must do a etrap/rtrap.
6 *
7 * A local_irq_disable() does not block the cross call delivery, so
8 * when SMP locking is an issue we reschedule the event into a PIL
9 * interrupt which is blocked by local_irq_disable().
10 *
11 * In fact any XCALL which has to etrap/rtrap has a problem because
12 * it is difficult to prevent rtrap from running BH's, and that would
13 * need to be done if the XCALL arrived while %pil==15.
